Memento proposes a technical framework aimed at better integrating the current and the past Web.
The framework adds a time dimension to the HTTP protocol and, inspired by content negotiation, introduces the notion of datetime negotiation.
The proposed framework can lead to more Web browsing fun as old versions of Web resources (e.g. in Web Archives and in Content Management Systems) become easier to access.
But Memento also suggest a generic approach for versioning Web resources that can help bootstrap a variety of novel, temporal Web applications.
